CHOOSING YOUR DIAMOND – the 4 C's
Diamond clarity is a very important characteristic of diamonds. In a way, it simply states how many and what size inclusions (marks) are in the diamond.
The highest grade of diamond clarity is called "Flawless" - the diamond is internally and externally flawless. In other words there are absolutely no imperfections.
"VVS1" and "VVS2" clarity diamonds are the next level down, but it is still extremely difficult to see any inclusions in this grade, even with a 10x magnification loupe (a pocket-size magnifying device).
"Vs1" and "Vs2" clarity diamonds are used quite readily by DDS customers who want a very high quality stone with absolutely no visible inclusions to the naked eye. With a 10x loupe, only very small marks can be seen.
Si1 clarity diamonds should still be totally clean to the eye, but DDS Diamonds chooses these stones with care, making sure the inclusion or mark that can be seen with the 10x loupe is in a position to the side of the diamond, so it cannot be seen at all to the naked eye.
The next level down is an Si2 clarity. These are chosen by customers who are either on a budget or prefer to maximise the size of their diamond. With this clarity, it is very important to choose a stone that is still clean to the eye with the inclusions off to the side, so the brilliance of the diamond is not affected in any way.
At DDS Diamonds our expert gemmologists select only diamonds that are perfectly clean to the eye and reflect the next highest clarity grade, but still have the lower clarity price, giving you better value for your money.
The Cut grade of a diamond is an important factor when looking at stones as it determines the brightness and brilliance of a diamond. When stones are certified by a reputable company such as GIA (Gemmological Institute of America), they are given a cut grade of Good, Very Good or Excellent. The Polish and Symmetry of diamonds are also graded in the same way.
In the case of round diamonds it has been worked out that a perfect proportional cut will absorb all the light around it and is reflected back out through the top of the diamond. In reference to round diamonds, this is known as "Excellent" cut and gives the Round cut diamond its amazing brilliance. Whereas Poor, Fair and Good cuts mean that the diamond is either too shallow or too deep, so the light that goes into the diamond is lost out the back or the side of the stone, and the brilliance of the stone is lost.
When the perfect angles and percentages are used, the diamond will be considered an 'Excellent' or 'Excellent Hearts & Arrows' cut Diamond. "Hearts and Arrows" is a term used for Round Brilliant cut diamonds to describe the effect one sees when a diamond is cut to the exact angles specified to produce the brightest diamond possible.
When looking at the diamond directly from the top, you can see what looks like arrows radiating from the centre of the stone. When looking directly into the back of the stone, you can see hearts radiating around the centre of the diamond.
The effect of hearts and arrows can be seen with the naked eye, but is much easier to see with a Hearts and Arrows Loupe. This loupe cuts out most of the surrounding light, enabling the viewer to focus on the light reflecting from the diamond without any interference.
"Hearts and Arrows" is usually not listed on diamond grading certificates, but as DDS Diamond Design Studios has knowledge of all the details of the diamonds we supply, this information is passed on to the customer, allowing them to make a highly informed decision about the diamond that most suits them.
DDS almost always uses diamonds which are classified by GIA as 'Excellent Cut'. 'Very Good' Cuts are used if a customer wants to maximise the mm size of their diamond at a budget.
When a stone is graded as "Triple Excellent", meaning it has Excellent Cut, Excellent Polish and Excellent Symmetry, it is assured to be an incredibly bright and brilliant stone. To go into the very fine detail of exact angles and percentages is unnecessary, because GIA, the certifier, has already done that for you.
Understanding the colour grades of white and yellow diamonds – as opposed to other coloured diamonds - is very important because it affects the overall look of the diamond a great deal. The DDS diamond buyer and highly experienced gemmologist explains….
The colour of white and yellow diamonds is expressed in alphabetical order. The highest grading for colour is the letter "D", which means it is the whitest in colour. Sometimes diamonds are noted as D+, which means it is slightly better than D, but on the diamond certificate, D is the highest grading.
The colour grades of E and F are also considered exceptional and still regarded as finest white.
The grade of G is a very good colour and still fine white. This is often used at DDS Diamond Design Studios due to its brilliance and relative affordability. The G colour grade is close to the cut-off point if you want an exceptional stone and still maximise the mm size of the diamond. Lower colours than G will begin to look slightly yellow.
H colour is still considered white and near colourless and is chosen by customers who want to reduce colour to get a slightly larger diamond. I colour is considered 'Commercial White' and as the label indicates, this grade is used in commercial, mass production jewellery items along with the J colour grading.
Colour grades from K to N are considered to be a 'Faint Yellow' colour as you can very easily see the yellow tint within the stone.
The next group of colours are O to R and these are classified as 'Very Light Yellow'. These stones are often used specifically because of their soft yellow colour, so are sought after to a degree.
The colours from S to Z range from 'Light Yellow' to 'Light Fancy Yellow' and start to get more expensive the lower in the alphabet you go, because they are rarer.
After Z, the colours are called 'Fancy Yellow' and 'Fancy Vivid Yellow' which are often 3 to 4 or up to 10 times the price of the top white colours, as they are very scarce.
There are also different coloured diamonds, but we will explain these in the coloured Diamond section.
One carat (1.00ct) in round brilliant diamond weight is equal to 1/5 or 0.02 of a gram and measures on average 6.45mm in diameter. The diameter will vary slightly due to the cut of the diamond. A stone that is very shallow will be bigger in diameter, whereas a diamond that has been cut deeply has all its weight in the underside of the stone, so the diameter will be smaller.
In the jewellery trade, carat weights are referred to as "points". There are 100 points in a one carat (1.00ct) stone. Therefore half a carat (0.50ct) is known as a 50 pointer and a quarter of a carat (0.25ct) is known as a 25 pointer, and so on.
The Carat weight of diamonds is one of the main factors that influences the end price of a ring. Diamond prices are calculated in price per Carat. The greater the weight of the diamond, the more the diamond is worth per Carat. This is because the larger the stone, the more rare it is and that is reflected in the "per carat" price. That is to say that small diamonds under five points cost much less per carat than diamonds over one carat, and two carat stones cost more again per carat because they are rarer still.
Having a diamond that has a large face is sometimes advantageous but it should not be at the expense of the brilliance of the diamond. The brilliance occurs when the proportions of the stone are as close to the ideal cut proportions as possible. In our opinion, it is far better to have a diamond of excellent proportions which is exceptionally bright and sparkly, than a larger stone of the same weight that does not have the fire and brilliance.

Kids love chalk, right? How can that be illegal?
Yes and no to it being strict. I think kids should be able to play with chalk if that's what they like to do regardless of living situation (apartment, condo, townhouse, house, rent or own) but I also agree with it being done only at home or school with permission. I know most schools allow young kids to use sidewalk chalk on the playground.
There's a difference between using the street/sidewalk in front of your own home or in front of a neighbors with their permission and using a street downtown or a city owned park. For kids who don't have houses with driveways or live in apartments/condo/townhouse/other type of multi family dwelling I've seen chalk drawings in the space in front of doors (when they have concrete) or in the parking lot area (close to the apartments away from where cars drive of course). Which to me falls under the same category as using your own driveway or sidewalk/street directly in front of your own house.
While people technically don't own the sidewalk in front of their house it is considered theirs. Like you can hang out in front of your own house all you want but if you were hanging out in front of someone else's house without permission they'd probably ask you to leave or at the very least go out and find out why you're loitering in front of their house.
People could argue that spray paint graffiti is art, which in some instances it does look like a professional painting or looks nice as opposed to derogatory slurs and names being tagged on a wall. Whether or not it's artistic doesn't matter because they're still painting on public property without permission. It can be painted over just like sidewalk chalk can be washed away but it doesn't make it okay. I'm sure someone could argue both sides convincingly about any form of "artistic" vandalism and create an array of grey areas but laws are generally supposed to be black and white, which is unfortunate for the grey areas but it also makes sense. It's like telling your kid you can't have candy before dinner but a cookie is okay. They both are sweet treats and should fall under the blanket rule of no sweets before dinner but a cookie isn't a piece of candy.
Chalk isn't spray paint or markers but because they can't pick and choose what they're going to call graffiti or vandalism just because of what was used (chalk, spray paint, markers etc) it falls under that blanket law. If they say chalk is okay because it usually washes away easily, someone could say this particular form of graffiti is okay because it's an artistic painting or because you can just paint over it.
Some people would delight at seeing a young child's drawing someplace while other curmudgeons would call it graffiti. Laws can't please everyone but they can't make exceptions without losing credibility and power. Just like you have to be consistent with your kids, laws have to be consistent with everyone.
It is illegal to let your kids draw on public properties or on private properties without permission. That said, there is nothing illegal about allowing your children to draw on your own driveway, or on a neighborhood street where you have permission.
Think of it this way: Would you be okay with someone allowing their child to come over and draw on your home with chalk? I doubt it. You can draw on your own property all you want, and no one can do anything about it (unless it violates a predetermined code/contract that you agreed to specifically), but you cannot draw on someone elses' property unless you have permission.
There's nothing wrong with chalk as long as it's on your own property. I played with chalk as a kid but my parents (my dad was a police officer for almost 30 years) told me and my siblings we could only do it in our driveway or directly in front of our house. It might seem silly or extreme to some people to punish people for letting their kids use chalk on city property but it can be considered vandalism.
If you replaced the chalk scenario with an adult or teenager defacing a building or park with inappropriate images in chalk I think people would react differently. From a city/law perspective you can't pick and choose what is considered vandalism and what isn't just because of the medium used. I would be just as upset over crayons on my wall as I would unwanted paint splatters. Forgive my poor preggo brain for not making my point clear lol but in a way I understand it but also understand why people wouldn't think it's a big deal since generally it washes off easily with water. But you still can't go around drawing on other people's property without permission from the owner.
I agree with most things you say! However, it's only chalk... Kids have to play and I would understand if parents had to clean up after their kids. In my eyes it simply doesn't make sense though to really punish somebody for letting their kids draw on the sidewalk. If they refuse to wash away their kids' chalk then punish them. No problem... On the other hand, we tend to overdo things I feel like. Nevertheless, thanks for your comment. I don't think our opinions are that different. At the end of the day it is up to you if you let your kids draw on the sidewalk or not because you have to face the consequences!
Yes, you're right! I understand what you're trying to explain, but I still feel like it's a little strict... don't you think? If my child draws on my neighbor's house, for example, this would be absolutely my fault. On the other hand a public street is not really a house, car, etc. where it really matters if my kid draws something or not... Some people don't have a driveway. What are they supposed to do?
I came across that for example: http://www.motherjones.com/politics/2012...! It's not CA, but sounds kinda scary to me... If people really get arrested for letting their kids draw I don't know if I feel safe in this country anymore!?
Have you found any other source to back it up? I wouldn't be trusting that source as the absolute truth regarding it.

Gimnazija Bežigrad (pogovorno poimenovana Bežigrajska gimnazija) je gimnazija v Ljubljani. Že desetletja velja za gimnazijo z najvišjim pragom pri vpisu in za eno od gimnazij z najboljšimi rezultati splošne mature. Gimnazija Bežigrad izvaja program gimnazija in program mednarodne mature.

Direktor je Ciril Dominko, ravnateljica Alenka Budihna, ravnatelj mednarodne šole (International School) pa Mirko Mrčela. Vodja skupnih služb je Manica Habjanič Gaberšek. Na šoli delujejo številni krožki in klubi.

Zgodovina

Začetek šole pogosto napačno postavljajo v 1852, ko je bila odprta trirazredna državna realka. Ta je res imela velik vpliv na razvoj šole, saj ji je nudila prostore in tudi začetek leta 1907 nekako izvira iz nje. Usoda teh dveh šol pa je skupna šele po letu 1959, ko je I. gimnazija s profesorji in dijaki prišla v skupno stavbo.

Nemška gimnazija

Za profesorje nove gimnazije so bili nastavljeni dotedanji profesorji I. gimnazije: šolski svetnik Alfonz Paulin, Franc Riedl, Rudolf Rothgang, prvi ravnatelj pa je bil Aleksander Pucsko. Prevladujejo nemški profesorji, kar je zaradi namena ustanovitve šole tudi razumljivo. Slovenci po narodnosti ali govorečem jeziku so le Alfonz Paulin, znani botanik, ki zaradi bolezni pred upokojitvijo leta 1909 sploh ni nastopil službe, in pomožni učitelj verouka kanonik Andrej Karlin, ki je učil le leta 1908. Istega leta je bil z realke premeščen na novo šolo Josip Jerše, ki je bil edini Slovenec na šoli do razpada Avstro-Ogrske.

Po današnjem pojmovanju je bila takratna gimnazija klasična, z latinščino od prvega in grščino od tretjega razreda naprej. Slovenščino so poučevali le kot neobvezni (danes izbirni ali fakultativni) predmet v štirih tečajih za dijake, ki niso bili Slovenci.

V prvem šolskem letu 1908/09 je imela gimnazija 5 razredov z eno paralelko v prvem. Redni učenci so bili moški, ženske pa le privatistke. Nemška manjšina, za katero je bila šola ustanovljena, je bila privilegirana in število učencev v razredih je bilo idealno nizko, ne tako, kot je danes. Ob koncu prvega leta je imel največ učencev drugi razred (23), najmanj pa peti (17). Vsega je bilo 115 učencev in 10 učenk (100 učencev in 10 učenk Nemcev, 9 Slovencev, 2 Italijana, 2 Čeha, 1 Hrvat in 1 Madžar). Šola je bila dobro opremljena, imela je za tisti čas kvalitetna učila, profesorji niso bili preobremenjeni z urami, finančno stanje pa je bilo zaradi socialne strukture učencev in mecenstva nemških ustanov in posameznikov ugodno. Gimnazija je bila domena ljubljanske in kranjske nemške buržoazije in birokracije; v imeniku učencev izstopajo imena baron Schwartz von Karsten (deželni predsednik), vitez Kaltnegger (predsednik deželnega šolskega sveta), vitez Laschan, grof Kuenigl, prof. Auersperg, Bamberg, Kosler, Samassa, Pammer, Luckmann, Roeger in drugi. Učenci so imeli pred drugimi ljubljanskimi srednješolci tudi to prednost, da se jim ni bilo treba učiti tujega jezika (nemščine).

15. februarja 1908 se je predhodnica naše šole preselila v Waldherrjevo hišo v Beethovnovi ulici št. 7, od koder sta se leta 1907 izselili II. državna gimnazija in študijska knjižnica v novo poslopje na Poljanski cesti. Na Beethovnovi 7 je bila šola do začetka svetovne vojne, ko je hišo zasedla vojska, in v šolskem letu 1914/15 je gostovala v prostorih Kazine na Kongresnem trgu.

Kljub selitvam je bil profesorski zbor precej stalen, število se je gibalo med 10 in 13. Med njimi so nekateri odlični strokovnjaki, na primer zgodovinar Oton Janker in znani kartograf in geograf Rudolf Rothgang. Profesorji so svoje znanstvene razprave objavljali v letnih poročilih, katerih izdajanje je v tretjem letu vojne prenehalo.

Število učencev je z leti naraščalo in višek doseglo v šolskem letu 1913/14, ko je bilo 164 učencev in 25 privatistk. V šolskem letu 1910/11 so bili le še štirje slovenski učenci, 1911/12 dva, do vojne pa nato le še po eden. So pa slovenska imena (Černe, Hribovšek, Potisek, Cigoj, Klemenčič, Hočevar) tudi med tistimi, ki so opredeljeni za Nemce. Začetek vojne z Italijo pa je prignal begunce iz Trsta, Pule in Gorice in konec šolskega leta 1915/16 je s privatistkami vred na šoli že 27 Slovencev, 5 Hrvatov in 16 Italijanov, vseh ne-Nemcev pa že skoraj 30 %. Leta 1916 je bil ravnatelj Pucsko na lastno željo upokojen in za novega ravnatelja je bil sprva začasno, čez dve leti pa stalno, imenovan Lorenz Treffer. Za njim je bil kratek čas ravnatelj še Oton Janker.

Realna gimnazija

Oktobra 1918 je bila nemška gimnazija skupaj z drugimi ljubljanskimi šolami zaradi epidemije »španske« gripe zaprta. Učenci so se kmalu spet zbrali, njihovih povečini nemških profesorjev pa ni bilo nazaj. Narodna vlada SHS v Ljubljani je 3. januarja 1919 izdala odlok, s katerim so nemške profesorje tudi uradno odpustili. Začasni ravnatelj je postal Josip Jerše, ki je sicer poučeval verouk. S propadom stare države in odhodom nemških uradnikov, častnikov in profesorjev iz Ljubljane je nemška gimnazija izgubila smisel svojega obstoja. Kot večina slovenskih gimnazij je bila tudi nemška spremenjena v realno gimnazijo, seveda s slovenskim učnim jezikom.

V Waldherrjevo hišo so prišli številni uradi in 10. januarja 1919 je bil sprejet odlok o preselitvi gimnazije z Beethovnove ulice v Virantovo hišo na sedanjem Levstikovem trgu št. 2. V novih prostorih je bila do šolskega leta 1921/22, ko so nekaj razredov preselili neposredno nazaj v Waldherrjevo hišo, večina razredov pa je našla zavetje v poslopju III. osnovne šole na Vrtači in se šele novembra 1929 preselila na Beethovnovo ulico.

Šola se je reformirala v realno gimnazijo s slovenskim učnim jezikom in nemškimi paralelkami, ki jih je postopoma opuščala. Z odlokom 29. maja 1924 je ministrstvo odločilo, da se zaradi premajhnega števila učencev z novim šolskim letom ukinejo višji razredi z nemškim učnim jezikom. 5. septembra, tik pred začetkom pouka, pa je ministrstvo brzojavno sporočilo, naj se spet vzpostavijo vsi razredi, a s slovenskim učnim jezikom. S tem odlokom je šola postala popolnoma slovenska in dobila ime III. državna realna gimnazija v Ljubljani.

V Jugoslaviji so se lahko vpisovale v šolo kot redne učenke tudi deklice. Ob koncu šolskega leta 1928/29 je bilo med 440 učenci 124 deklet. Jeseni leta 1929 pa je po ministrski odredbi postala iz mešanega moški zavod z nazivom III. državna moška realna gimnazija, učenke pa so prepisali na II. gimnazijo na Poljane, ki je postopoma postajala ženska gimnazija. V šolskem letu 1939/40 pa so na zahtevo mnogih staršev sprejeli v 1. razred 40 učenk, ki so imele poseben oddelek, a so ga naslednje leto razpustili in do konca 2. svetovne vojne je bila III. gimnazija izključno moška. Je pa dobila leta 1926 prvo profesorico, leta 1928 še dve, v šolskem letu 1939/40 pa je bilo med 66 polno zaposlenimi na šoli že 11 žensk.

Ko so iz avstrijske šole po tipu iz leta 1908 naredili leta 1919 realno gimnazijo, je bila pomembna sprememba le uvedba francoščine namesto grščine v tretjem letniku. Beograjski vpliv pa je bil vedno močnejši in 8. januarja 1925 je najradikalnejša sprememba v tem obdobju, ko odpravijo v prvih dveh razredih latinščino in nemščino ter v drugem tudi staro zgodovino, uvedejo pa v drugem razredu obvezno francoščino in v 1. in 2. razredu petje. Reforma se je postopoma širila v višje razrede in v 3. razred pride nacionalna zgodovina, v 4. higiena, latinščina pa se začne šele v 5. razredu. Leta 1927 odpravijo sprejemne izpite in uvedejo trimestre, a novost se ne obnese in v šolskem letu 1931/32 so spet sprejemni izpiti in 2 polletji. Od leta 1921 je spet uvedena tudi šolnina, katere višina je odvisna od premoženjskega stanja staršev.

Edini Slovenec v profesorskem zboru nemške gimnazije Josip Jerše je opravljal delo ravnatelja do jeseni 1920, ko je bil za ravnatelja imenovan dotedanji profesor I. gimnazije Valentin Korun. Upokojen je bil jeseni 1925 in umrl je v Ljubljani leta 1940. Njegov naslednik Kuno Hočevar je prišel za ravnatelja januarja 1926. V prvih desetih letih ravnateljevanja je preživel s šolo vse težave (redukcijo, ukinitev, selitve), a ji je pridobil novo poslopje in vodil šolo do upokojitve leta 1939. Umrl je leta 1953 v Ljubljani. V začetku 2. polletja 1939/40 ga je nasledil Adolf Pečovnik, profesor klasične gimnazije v Mariboru in bivši prosvetni inšpektor nekdanje mariborske oblasti.

Politična centralizacija v Jugoslaviji je vodila tudi boj proti kulturni moči centrov zunaj Beograda in 1. julija 1932 je sledila ukinitev III. ljubljanske gimnazije. Takrat je imela v 18 oddelkih 706 učencev. Večina se jih je vpisala na I. realno gimnazijo, kamor so bili premeščeni tudi ravnatelj in večina profesorjev. Na tej šoli je bila tedaj še večja stiska s prostorom in pritisk javnosti je bil tolikšen, da so že 30. julija 1933 obnovili popolno III. gimnazijo.

Selitev v novo stavbo

Gimnazija je še naprej gostovala pri I. gimnaziji na Vegovi ulici, čez tri leta je dobila lastno novo šolsko poslopje. Zgraditev šolske stavbe za Bežigradom predstavlja po 30 (1907 je bila zgrajena Poljanska gimnazija) letih prvo novo srednješolsko poslopje v Ljubljani. Projektant arhitekt Emil Navinšek je z njim postavil prvo brezkoridorno šolsko stavbo na svetu. To je pomenilo pomemben prihranek pri investiciji, stavba je imela minimalen obseg, popolno osvetlitev po horizontalah in vertikalah, manjše stroške vzdrževanja, maksimalno prehodnost in najboljšo termotehnično izdelavo. Posebna vrednost pa so bili tudi etažni prostori, ki gostijo različne prireditve, razstave, zborovanja, šolske plese in tudi različna srečanja maturantov. Novo šolsko poslopje so slovesno odprli in blagoslovili 18. oktobra 1936.

Ob vselitvi jeseni 1936 je imela šola 1215 učencev v 27 oddelkih in 46 profesorjev, leta 1940 pa že 38 oddelkov s 1608 učenci in 66 profesorjev. Tako veliko šolo je bilo težko upravljati in s šolskim letom 1940/41 je prosvetno ministrstvo šolo razdelilo na dvoje. Iz enega dela vzporednic s 600 dijaki so ustanovili samostojno šolo z nazivom IV. državna realna gimnazija, ki je iz preostale III. gimnazije dobila tudi 25 profesorjev, za ravnatelja pa je bil imenovan prof. Franc Stopar. Prostore pa sta imeli gimnaziji še vedno v istem poslopju. Jeseni leta 1940 se je v telovadnico in stranske prostore naselila še protiletalska baterija, na bližnji travnik pa postavila topove.

Italijanska okupacija je prinesla nekaj sprememb v učne načrte, mnogo močneje pa so vojna leta vplivala na izvajanje pouka. Izrazita, a ne zelo uspešna je bila fašistična ideološka propaganda. Ko sta se spomladi 1942 vselili v poslopje bežigrajske gimnazije najprej I. moška realna gimnazija in nato še učiteljišče, sta imeli obe gimnaziji pouk vsaka po 3 dni v tednu, učiteljišče pa trikrat popoldne. Naslednje leto so imeli vsakdanji pouk le osmošolci in nekaj časa tretje- in četrtošolci.

Z odhodom italijanskih prosvetnih funkcionarjev in profesorjev so jeseni 1943 prenehale veljati italijanske šolske reforme. Italijanščino kot prvi tuji jezik zamenja nemščina. Politično neprimerni ravnatelj Pečovnik je bil upokojen z argumentom, da ima dva sina pri partizanih.

Vodstvo šole je prevzel Josip Ilc, a pouk ni več potekal normalno. Stavbo je zasedla vojska in 3. marca 1944 je dobila gimnazija nekaj učilnic v uršulinski zunanji šoli. V tem letu je bilo le 60 dni pouka, pa še ta je bil moten zaradi stalnih letalskih alarmov. Tudi zadnje vojno šolsko leto se je začelo v enako slabih pogojih, spomladi 1945 pa je pouk popolnoma zastal.

Številni učenci in profesorji so bili aktivni v osvobodilnem gibanju in v partizanih. Leta 1948 so vzidali v levi steber v vhodni avli šole marmorno ploščo s 54 imeni padlih in umrlih učencev III. gimnazije, v desni steber pa ploščo s 53 imeni vojnih žrtev s IV. gimnazije. V šolskem letu 1984/85 je bil v zvezi z dejavnostjo dijakov med II. svetovno vojno in v spomin na padle posnet televizijski film.

Po osvoboditvi je nova oblast postavila za delegata na III. gimnaziji prof. Alojza Vadnala, vrnili so se nekateri internirani profesorji, prav tako pa so vrnili tudi nasilno upokojenega ravnatelja A. Pečovnika. Komisija treh profesorjev je pregledala med vojno izdana spričevala in dijaki, ki so sodelovali z okupatorjem, niso dobili veljavnih spričeval. Komisija samo za 11 učencev ni predlagala odobritve.

Povojno obdobje

Z začetkom šolskega leta 1947/48 je bila z odločbo prosvetnega ministrstva na vseh šolah uvedena koedukacija, šolam pa določeni okoliši. III. gimnaziji so bili od izvenljubljanskih učencev določeni vozači, ki so se vozili v Ljubljano po vrhniški progi. Prvo leto se je vpisalo 308 fantov in 302 dekleti. Uvedena je bila sedemletka s tremi razredi nižje in štirimi razredi višje gimnazije. V vseh razredih je bil prvi tuji jezik seveda ruščina. Začetna reforma gimnazij pa ni bila izvedena do konca in leta 1951 so bili spet štirje razredi nižje in štirje višje gimnazije. Namesto ruščine je v večino gimnazij prišla angleščina, kot drugi tuji jezik v višjih razredih pa nemščina. V naslednjem šolskem letu so uvedli pouk družbeno moralne vzgoje, v višjih razredih pa spet latinščino.

Jeseni 1954 so objavili novi predmetnik za višje gimnazije, latinščina je postala neobvezen predmet, šole pa so lahko po lastni izbiri odprle v 1. razredu vzporednice z obvezno latinščino poleg živega tujega jezika. V šolskem letu 1955/56 je tako vzporednico s 35 dijaki dobila tudi III. gimnazija. Od leta 1949 je bila vpeljana tudi predvojaška vzgoja.

Za zadnji javni nastop IV. gimnazije šteje njena navzočnost ob otvoritvi spominskih plošč junija 1948. Jeseni je bila ukinjena in se je zlila s III. gimnazijo, v stavbo pa je prišla gostovat VIII. gimnazija, ki je bila do tedaj v šoli na Vodovodni cesti.

Z izvedbo dolgo odlašane reforme pa je bila 31. avgusta 1958 poleg vseh drugih ukinjena v stari obliki tudi III. gimnazija. Namesto nje (in bivše VIII. gimnazije) je s 1. septembrom 1958 nastala nova gimnazija s samo štirimi (dotedaj višjimi) razredi, ki pa se je še vedno imenovala III. gimnazija. Z uvedbo obveznega osemletnega šolanja so od tedaj gimnazije štiriletne. Ob teh reformah so se mnoge šole selile iz ene v drugo. Tako so se I. gimnaziji na Vegovi 4 priključili profesorji in dijaki višjih razredov dotedanje VII. in II. gimnazije, že naslednje šolsko leto 1959/60 pa je morala I. gimnazija zapustiti prostore v Vegovi ulici in se je skupaj z II. in VII. gimnazijo preselila v prostore III. državne realne gimnazije. Tako sta se v šolskem letu 1959/60 združili I. in III. gimnazija, vključno s šolami, ki so se jima prej priključile, v I. gimnazijo Ljubljana-Bežigrad. Po mnenju nekaterih je šola dobila ime I. gimnazija zato, ker je bivša realka v preteklosti nudila prostore šoli.

Šolska reforma je dala tudi novo vodstvo. Ravnateljsko funkcijo je v šolskem letu 1958/59 prevzel profesor zgodovine Ivan Križnar, še naslednje leto se je z učiteljišča za dve leti vrnil prof. Franc Čemažar. V šolskem letu 1962/63 je šola dobila novo ravnateljico, prof. Štefko Severjevo, ki je bila ravnateljica do upokojitve leta 1980. Do leta 1984 je bila nato ravnateljica profesorica slovenskega jezika Marija Pavšek, od leta 1984 pa je ravnatelj profesor matematike Janez Šušteršič.

Usmerjeno izobraževanje

Že v prvih letih po drugi svetovni vojni so bili na takratni gimnaziji uveljavljeni naravoslovni krožki. Obsegali so več predmetov: fiziko, kemijo, biologijo, astronomijo, v petdesetih letih pa je Društvo matematikov, fizikov in astronomov Slovenije začelo z organizacijo vsakoletnih tekmovanj iz matematike. Mladi matematiki in fiziki so se, predvsem po zaslugi prof. Ivana Štalca, odlično pripravili na nadaljnji študij. Od šolskega leta 1964/65 je oblikovala gimnazija v vsakem 1. letniku tudi paralelko matematične smeri.

Posebnost šolskega leta 1971/72 je bila uvedba petdnevnega tednika; zaradi neusklajenosti mnenj je bila šola med zadnjimi, ki so uvedle proste sobote. V tem letu je bilo uvedeno v predmetnik kot neobvezni predmet tudi računalništvo. V šolskem letu 1974/75 je dobil predmetnik spet nov predmet: samoupravljanje s temelji marksizma. V tem letu so se začele pojavljati tudi prve ideje o celodnevni šoli in usmerjenem izobraževanju. Iz ustave 1974. leta je sledilo, naj bi se negospodarske dejavnosti financirale preko svobodne menjave dela in leta 1976/77 je prišlo do pobude, naj bi gimnazija prišla v sklop Elektrogospodarstva. Vendar je leta 1981, ko je bilo končno uvedeno usmerjeno izobraževanje, šola zaradi dotedanjega dela in uspehov pri izobraževanju učencev na področju matematike in naravoslovja dobila naravoslovno matematično usmeritev.

V letu 1982 se je šola preimenovala v Srednjo naravoslovno šolo (SNŠ) Ljubljana (vsako preimenovanje kaže na določene vsebinske spremembe). Izvajala je naravoslovno-matematični program in v okviru rudarsko geološke usmeritve programe za geološkega tehnika, geovrtalnega tehnika, geovrtalca (3 letni) in skrajšani program pomočnika geovrtalca (2 letni), do zaključka šolskega leta 1983/84 pa poleg teh še gimnazijski program. Zaradi majhnega zanimanja je leta 1984 prenehal vpis za zadnje tri rudarsko geološke programe, leta 1986 pa se je vpisala zadnja generacija v program geološkega tehnika in šolanje končala v šolskem letu 1989/90.

Splošna gimnazija

Usmerjenemu izobraževanju je sledila reforma s ponovno uvedbo programa gimnazije s pridobitvijo splošne izobrazbe. Leta 1990 je bil po dijaškem referendumu sprejet sklep o preimenovanju SNŠ v Gimnazijo Bežigrad. S šolskim letom 1990/91 je začela vpisovati učence v gimnazijski program in v letu 1993 je šolanje zaključila zadnja generacija naravoslovno-matematičnih tehnikov.

Ob koncu šolskega leta 1990/91 je stekla gradnja prizidka, ki je bil slovesno odprt jeseni 1991. Tako je bil vsem učencem omogočen pouk samo dopoldne. Zaradi neprimernosti stare šolske telovadnice je bil po letu dni gradnje jeseni 1995 odprt tudi nov športni kompleks Gimnazije Bežigrad.

Šolsko leto 1990/91 pa predstavlja tudi novo vsebinsko obogatitev dela Gimnazije Bežigrad, saj je po večletnih temeljitih pripravah stekel pouk po programu Mednarodne mature (International Baccalaureate). Tako se je Gimnazija Bežigrad (in II. gimnazija v Mariboru) vključila v program, ki ga pod okriljem UNESCO in OZN izvaja več kot 500 šol po vsem svetu. Uspehi mednarodnih maturantov jih postavljajo prav na vrh maturantov iz te družine šol. Z osamosvojitvijo Slovenije pa so se pojavile tudi nove potrebe v šolstvu in od šolskega leta 1993/94 Gimnazija Bežigrad poleg nacionalnega (gimnazijskega) programa in programa mednarodne mature tudi mednarodno šolo - šolo za tujce (International School).

My family and I greatly enjoy our winters in Idaho. It gets snowy and cold, but the snow stays around and the cold is a crisp cold — not a bone-chilling cold with heavy humidity, like we were used to when we lived on the East Coast. We look forward to the snowshoe hikes, the warmth and coziness of the fire, and the benefits of cooking on a wood stove all winter long. To me there is nothing that says home more than the comforts of a warm house ridden with the sumptuous scents of good home-cooking and bread baking.
When I think of comfort foods, steaming fresh bread comes to mind — with homemade butter and maybe a touch of fresh honey, jelly, or jam. I love using my wood stove for our meals, breads, and baked goods. We are very frugal here in the wilderness, so when I can utilize a free resource instead of one I have to pay for, it only seems right.
What Can You Cook on a Wood Stove?
If you are not used to cooking on a wood stove, it really isn't that hard at all! Not to mention, it will provide tastier meals than you can imagine. I enjoy placing a roast on my wood stove in the early morning, and letting it simmer until late afternoon or early evening. The roast is beyond tender and the house smells wonderful all day. I have been told already that my husband and boys can smell it outside and it drives them nuts while they are working. The key thing is to check it regularly to be certain that there is still broth in the Dutch oven. The broth or natural juices created by the roast will also make a wonderful soup base for later in the week.
So today, I'm sharing two Boule recipes over at GNOWFGLINS.
Hi Tammy! Great article on Gnowfglins! Thanks for sharing 🙂 I've been wondering about baking bread on our wood stove…seems a shame to heat up the oven when I have the wood stove going!
Do you bake the muffins in your Dutch oven too? Our stove isn't big enough to fit one of those stove top ovens, so I have mostly been cooking stews, soups, sauces, stir fries, things like that. Your tips for heating up the Dutch oven, putting a trivet under it, and heating the lid are very helpful! Thanks 🙂 Now I need to go search for my trivets…I boxed them up somewhere in the basement. It could take awhile to find them!
Awesome recipes and LOVE your cookstove. We have to get ours up and running (flue, flu, flew?) put in (: Wish we had it this past weekend! BURRR! Love your stuff my friend! ((((((hugs))))) Be warm!
I hear you on real winters, I love them too. With the smell of fresh bread, and a fire going in the wood stove, it is so nice! We also LOVE snowshoe hikes!
Thanks!! I LOVE the stove too!! There is nothing better than the warmth of a woodstove and being able to take in the warm glow of the flame… Best of luck in getting yours and be sure to report back and share some pics….. 🙂 Blessings….
I tried making this on my stove this after noon. It has been cooking for over 3 hours and it still isn't done. I am using a Dutch Oven that has the feet on it. Is it too far off the stove to get it hot enough? I finally put coals on top and it started cooking some. My thermometer on top of the stove has been reading over 400 the whole time. Sometimes even over 500.
Here is after over 3 hours.
You bread looks really nice…. Hope you were able to get it baked one way or the other and you and I will work this out and get it perfected!! Blessings my dear….
Long time no chat I am trying so hard to get this sour dough recipe for myself and my pastor they have a new wood stove and 6 kids yep 2 sets of twins and 4 more wowzer…anyway my media com wifi does not like me a lot stuck in 2 yr contract how can I get this wonderful looking bread recipe?


Set up in 2014 by the Mexican, Brooklyn-based artist Bosco Sodi, Casa Wabi Foundation has since outgrown the original Tadao Ando-designed exhibition and residency complex on the Pacific Ocean coast in Oaxaca, Mexico. Directed by the artist's sister Carla Sodi, the foundation's offices are located in Santa María la Ribera, Mexico City, in a beautifully refurbished town house, which is also used to showcase furniture designed by Lucia Corredor, his wife. An adjoining exhibition space is aimed specifically at emerging local artists who are not represented by a commercial gallery and as a result have fewer opportunities to show their work.
Long before he ever went to Japan, Sodi had been an admirer of Tadao Ando. In Sodi's eyes, the architect's practice in general and Casa Wabi in particular embody the Japanese wabi-sabi spirit reflected in the foundation's name. Rooted in Zen Buddhism, the dual aesthetic concept allies rustic simplicity and understated elegance (wabi) with impermanence and the patina gained with age (sabi). Sodi's choice of architect for the main complex out in Oaxaca was dictated by strategic as much as aesthetic considerations; he reckoned Tadao Ando's name and reputation would lure people over to this part of Mexico. It took some perseverance to get the sought-after, Pritzker Prize-winning starchitect on board. 'I asked him five times and five times he said no,' Sodi recalls. But as the Mexican artist himself became better known, not least in Japan, one day Ando turned up in his studio and liked his work and the sound of the project enough to take it on.
Growing recognition brought with it financial rewards that enabled Sodi to realize his ambitions. Following a critically-acclaimed first solo show at the Bronx Museum in 2010, the artist signed with the Pace Gallery (which no longer represents him) and started making what he regards as indecent amounts of money. 'I thought it was not moral to keep all that money for myself,' says Sodi, explaining what motivated him to set up an art foundation. According to the artist, who has clearly assimilated the values of his adopted country, 'for people who have done well, it should be an obligation to give back'.
Mexico has its own tradition of philanthropy and artist-endowed charitable initiatives, nowhere more so perhaps than in the state of Oaxaca. Following in the footsteps of painter Rufino Tamayo (1899-1991), who hailed from Oaxaca de Juárez, artist Francisco Toledo (b. 1940) has financed a spate of cultural and educational institutions – ranging from specialized libraries and ethnobotanical gardens to a photography centre, graphic art museum and handmade paper factory – located mostly in and around Oaxaca City, where he is based. Toledo's generosity has in turn inspired a younger generation of artists, Sodi chief amongst them, who either reside or have family ties in the region. As it happens, Casa Wabi and its extensive gardens are built on land that once belonged to Sodi's grandfather and the artist often stayed there when he was growing up.
The artist's personal contribution amounts to about half of its annual budget, a relatively modest 300,000 dollars. The government of Oaxaca foots 20 per cent of the bill. The rest comes from donations. When the artist and his spouse were considering what form the foundation could take, they knew they did not want it to be dedicated to Sodi's art, as is the case with a lot of artist-endowed foundations. That said, aside from the Sodi family living quarters, Casa Wabi proper houses Bosco Sodi's open-air studio where sundry clay pieces, awaiting to be fired in a nearby wood oven, were on view when I visited.
At the other end of the high 312-metres long polished concrete wall, which spans the entire property and divides the mountains and the gardens from the seaside and the dwelling places, lie the six self-contained cottages designed to accommodate as many resident artists. Two closed and several semi-open studios located on the mountain side can be accessed directly through one of the rare openings in the wall Ando conceived for Casa Wabi. In practice, few artists avail themselves of the dedicated work spaces. Former residents and the artists I spoke to during my stay at Casa Wabi complained of not being able to splatter paint on the floor or nail anything to the walls in what are, after all, artist studios. The main wall is untouchable, in line with strict directives emanating from Ando's studio. In this tug of war between the architectural practice, intent on preserving the purity of the original design, and the resident artists for whom the place was intended, the latter are losing the battle for now. And yet – for all its unfortunate associations, especially in the Mexican context – the wall does have its virtues; for one thing, walking alongside it from one part of this multi-functional building to another effectively slows one down and fosters a meditative state of mind.
bitácora, a cabin log or diary of sorts, acting as a memento of their stay. Historian Gustavo Parra, who unravelled for me some of the log pieces displayed in different areas of the house, insisted that this is 'not a production residency but rather a community project residency'. His role, in fact, is to facilitate exchanges between residents, who often come from outside of Mexico, have little or no Spanish and even less of an understanding of the local customs, and the 12 or so neighbouring communities that Casa Wabi works with.
A visit to some of these communities – in what is one of the most deprived states of Mexico – feels like a step back in time. El Venado, where horses can be seen going round and round a pole stuck in a vat filled with clay used to make bricks with. With no electricity, never mind Internet access, the village seems lightyears away from the stylish design and modern amenities of Casa Wabi. Arancio, who often works with clay, engaged two local communities in an activity of totem building that drew on their respective skills and materials each produces – namely bricks in El Venado and coconuts at Agua Zarca. This symbolic act was intended to bring closer together two communities who live next to each other but seldom interact, despite sharing their primary and secondary schools, which is in fact where the results of their joint efforts ended up.
While Casa Wabi's various cultural and educational programs are not aimed at children and teenagers alone (the American artist Jens Siena, for instance, had designed labels for a women's cooperative to help them sell their produce), school visits certainly keep them busy. That's where Álvaro Siza's clay pavilion comes into its own. Sheltered by another, this time semi-circular brick wall, more in keeping with the local building traditions, the open-air kiln and work area receive up to three school groups each week. 'It's a whole cultural day for them,' says Sodi. When the children arrive they are first show a movie in a purpose-built projection room next to the exhibition space in the main complex; then they head over to the clay pavilion and, as the teacher shows them what to do with it, they listen to classical music often for the first time. 'A kid has a totally open mind and we're trying to show them that there's another way to see, to understand life,' Sodi explains. The school outing ends with lunch and a visit to the newly opened Guayakan Pavilion, a sort of plant nursery.

Carlton misses the finals by 2 points.
Geelong managed to field a team in 1944 for the first time in 3 years, due to World War II. This removed the problem of having to deal with byes for the VFL and allowed the season to have its traditional 18 home and away rounds. The Cats would struggle, however, winning only one game and losing eight by over 50 points (including three 100 point-plus losses, one of which was to Carlton). Jim Francis was appointed Carlton's captain for the season but didn't play a senior game. He tried to make a comeback in the reserves but broke down and then retired. Bob 'Bomber' Atkinson took over as captain for the rest of 1944.
After a first round loss to South Melbourne, Carlton was one of the teams in good early-season form, winning 7 games in a row between rounds 2 and 8 to be first on the ladder, half a game ahead of Richmond in second place. In the second half of the season the Blues could only split their games, winning 5 of the last 10 matches. This included narrow losses to Footscray in round 11 and again to the Dogs by only 1 point in round 18. This second loss to Footscray occurred in controversial circumstances and would cause Carlton to miss out on a finals appearance by half a game, finishing in fifth behind the Dogs.
In many ways this season was the exact opposite on the previous year. In 1943 we had started poorly, gained form in the second half of the season, and then narrowly squeaked into the finals because Hawthorn had lost in the final round by 1 point.

Officers from the local police in Villanueva de la Serena, a city in the Province of Badajoz, Extremadura, arrested a 14 year old child on suspicion of reckless driving and driving without a license.
The incident occurred at 04:40 on Monday morning when a patrol involved in surveillance duties observed a vehicle without lights and performing manoeuvres consistent with criminal activities.
The patrol ordered the suspect vehicle to stop, but it attempted to flee at speed. As the officers called for support, a number of patrols joined the chase and successfully stopped the vehicle.
Upon approaching the car, the officers found it was occupied by two children, later to be confirmes as aged 14 and 15. The 14 year old driver was identified as the grandson of the vehicle owner and had taken the vehicle without permission.
The police stressed the importance of parents to "exercise control" over their children, as at the time of day that this incident took place, children should "not be freely in the streets".


Oosterbeek is a village in the Dutch province of Gelderland. It is located in the municipality of Renkum, about 5 km west of Arnhem.
The oldest part of the village of Oosterbeek is the Benedendorp (Lower Village), on the northern bank of the river Rhine. Parts of the church now known as the Hervormde Kerk (Reformed Church) date back to the second half of the 10th century.
In the 19th century several mansions were built on the higher ground to the north of the old village, such as De Hemelse Berg (destroyed in 1944) and Hartenstein. The construction of smaller buildings in the same area eventually led to the Bovendorp (Upper Village).
Today, Oosterbeek is probably best known for being involved in and heavily damaged during the September 1944 Battle of Arnhem.

Manager Gary Rowett laid out to the media details of a club that is eating itself alive from the inside out.
Having been relegated from the Premier League last season, Stoke City is winless in its first four matches of Championship play. Their most recent loss came in devastating fashion, conceding a pair of penalties and losing 3-0 to newly promoted Wigan.
For Wigan, American international Antonee Robinson would have picked up an assist had Nick Massey not been fouled, leading to Grigg's his second penalty.
Season Preview: Can Wagner's Huddersfield Town defend its way to safety?
Top Three after three match days and when the calendar hit 2018, Huddersfield Town's first season in the Premier League took a dramatic downturn the rest of the way. The Terriers' 16th place finish was just four points clear of the drop zone, and Town's minus-30 goal differential was worse than all but one team in top flight (Stoke City).
There were bright spots for German-American manager David Wagner, though, and he's bringing all of them back including outstanding goalkeeper Jonas Lossl. He'll have to find more goals, though, as Town's 28-goal season was the joint-worst in the Premier League (Swansea City). What's worse? Eleven of those 28 goals came in three matches, and there is no real significant transfer yet to expect a major growth in output.
Huddersfield Town will be relegated because… The goals don't come, and the reliance on too few difference makers in the midfield wears down its corps. Opening with Chelsea and Man City sink the Terriers after two weeks, and three Top Four contenders in its final five matches hamper their chances to finish strong.
Transfers Out: Tom Ince ($12.5 million, Stoke City), Rob Green (free, Chelsea).
Town was fortunate to survive the drop last season by any number of metrics, and aren't taking too many risks in addressing their holes. Kongolo and Lossl were two of their best players last season, and making loans permanent was a necessary move. Versatile Erik Durm is a World Cup winner who could prove to be an all-timer of a move. Two interesting bets come in the form of Bacuna, Diakhaby and Sobhi, who could succeed with more consistent roles than they had in their past clubs.
Star player: Aaron Mooy — The baldheaded midfielder has risen with a rocket since signing with Manchester City a few years ago, and his four-goal, three-assist campaign saw Town go 5W-1L in matches he registered a goal or assist.
Coach's Corner: Wagner won the UEFA Cup as a player with Schalke before scrapping his way through to promotion with Town. He's liked by his players and adept at tactics. The questions are whether he's added enough players to compete should no more help arrived by Thursday's transfer deadline.
PST Predicts: Another season of ups and downs which sees Town mostly struggling to stay above the drop zone.
Swansea City played with 10 men for 79 minutes but still collected another point for Carlos Carvalhal in a scoreless draw with sputtering Huddersfield Town at the John Smith's Stadium on Saturday.
Swans sit 14th with 31 points, while Town is 16th with the same total but eight goals worse differential.
Jordan Ayew went studs-up into Jonathan Hogg to give the hosts a man advantage after barely more than 10 minutes, and Town dominated the proceedings over 45 minutes but failed to find a goal.
The pressure kept coming, but Carlos Carvalhal's Swans stayed tight. Huddersfield registered chance after chance, but couldn't press their collective foot down on the long neck of the Swans.
Lukasz Fabianski could only watch as Tom Ince headed off the bar at the edge of stoppage time, perhaps Town's best opportunity to capitalize on its advantage over 80 minutes.
11 – Jordan Ayew's red card after 11 minutes is the earliest a player has been sent off in the Premier League this season. Impetuous.

Joy-Anna Duggar and Austin Forsyth: Married! For Real!
Joy-Anna Duggar and Austin Forsyth are married.
It's finally true! And oh so exciting!
For the past several days, fans of this reality star have been wondering whether or not she and her long-time acquaintance had tied the knot.
There was chatter just a few days ago that Joy-Anna Duggar married Austin Forsyth last weekend in their native Arkansas.
A top Duggar social media source, the Facebook page "Duggar Family News: Life Is Not all Pickles & Hairspray, fueled this speculation.
Some sources reported that their wedding had, indeed, taken place, although we later learned this not the case after all.
Now, however, we can state with certainty that the 19-year-old Joy and the 23-year-old Austin are wife and husband.
Because they've confirmed it themselves!
"We feel so happy and so excited," the couple told People Magazine after getting married on Friday in a church full of family members and loved ones.
The publication has even included a photo of Joy-Anna in her wedding dress for its exclusive article regarding the nuptials.
The young star got engaged just a few months after announcing their courtship on the special episode of Counting On: Jinger's Wedding in November.
This is typical protocol for members of the family, of course.
Due to the very strict Duggar dating rules, they are barely allowed to do more than whisper in one another's ears while dating.
Heck, you can't even hold hands until you're engaged.
Therefore, it makes sense they'd want to get married as soon as possible once they find someone they like a whole lot.
In Joy-Anna and Austin's case, the two were family friends for 15 years before entering into a courtship last fall.
"It's really special that I got to grow up with him and my family knows him really well," Joy-Anna said of Austin back in February.
Speaking on their shared history and relationship, the teenager acknowledged at the time that she's relatively young to be engaged.
At the same time, she's witnessed successful relationships across the board when it comes to her gigantic family.
Joy-Anna and Austin, meanwhile, recorded a video for TLC so soon after their nuptials that the former is still in her gown.
In this preview, the newlyweds tease the June 12 return of Counting On and make it clear that they're totally psyched to be married.
"Saying our vows and saying 'I do' and committing our lives to each other is so incredible," the bride said, beaming with joy.

How do famous parent Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar feel about the bump in status for their daughter and official new son-in-law?
"What an absolutely wonderful day our family will always treasure," they wrote on Instagram last night.
"As parents, we could not be more grateful for the godly woman Joy has become, and the loving husband she married!
The wedding itself, along with many other details of this relationship, will be featured on the June 12 premiere of TLC's Counting On.

This wedding comes after sister Jinger Duggar got hitched to Jeremy Vuolo in November 2016.
And this ceremony followed in the marital footsteps of siblings Jill and Jessa Duggar to Derek Dillard in June 2014 and Ben Seewald in November 2014, respectively.
Joseph Duggar and Kendra Caldwell got engaged at Joy-Anna's reception! The 22-year-old popped the question to his 18-year-old fiancee!
"We are super excited. It's great to not be courting anymore, now we're engaged!" the couple shared with People shortly afterward.
We send our hearty congratulations to Joy-Anna and Austin … and to Joseph and Kendra too! Quite a weekend in Tontitown!

We have all heard, read about and perhaps even experienced the great emphasis that this nation places on charity, care for the under-privileged and less fortunate, and the development of communities. Considering that 2018 is being marked as the Year of Zayed, who is accepted world-wide as a symbol of peace, compassion and generosity, we at The Bloomington Academy celebrated the flag of U.A.E in these colours of giving and supporting.
These small contributions from our strongly supportive parent community will now reach scores of families that are within an arm's distance from us and that quite often go to bed on a single meal all day.
Thank you parents and so proud of you students!

The Baby Boomer Generation, so called because of the drastic increase in the number of American births after World War II, is the single largest generation ever born in U.S. history. The oldest Boomers, as they are affectionately called, began turning 65 in 2011. The last one won't turn 65 until 2029, which means that America's largest generation will remain a significant part of the workforce for several more years. In fact, according to the Pew Research Center, and even with a quarter having already reached retirement age, Boomers make up 29% of the workforce. Generation Xers and Millennials each make up 34%, while the remaining Silents make up 2% and the yet-to-be-named Post Millennials already at 1%.
Medicare – You may not need Medicare coverage yet, but it is important to sign up at the correct time. Missing sign up windows can lead to increased Part B premiums. Be sure to do your research on when you need to sign up for Medicare and how that is affected by continuing to work.
Social Security – Working longer will increase your Social Security benefit. For every year that you do not draw Social Security, your eventual payments will increase once you do start drawing.
Retirement Accounts – Be aware of the parameters of any retirement accounts you currently have (IRAs, 401Ks, etc.). Understand at what you can begin drawing without fees, and what taxes will be involved. You will want to make the most of your retirement account, so don't get stuck with fees that can be easily avoided.
Financial Advisor – Schedule regular checkups with a financial advisor to ensure that your retirement plan is still in good health. You don't want to have any surprises when you decide that you are ready to retire.
Investments – If you are remaining in the workforce and you are financially able, continue to invest. You'll only add to that nest egg.
